IEEE Robotics and Automation Society IIUC SBC in association with IEEE - IIUC Student Branch Chapter organized a 2-day long “Workshop on getting started with Microcontroller & Robotics” at International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC), Chittagong on 29-30th May 2021. The Workshop included a Hands-on session and expert lectures by Sayed Tanimun Hasan, Chairperson - IEEE Robotics and Automation Society IIUC SBC, International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC).

The formal inauguration was held at 07:00 PM via the Zoom platform. Around 63 participants took part in this event. Welcoming the Chief Guest and other dignitaries, Sayed Tanimun Hasan made all the students familiar with the basics of Robotics & Microcontrollers. He explained the need for proper guidance to learn microcontrollers independently using Circuit Design & Simulation. He pointed out some of the basics of microcontroller-based project development. He also spoke about his love towards junior students and how they can achieve milestones with a little encouragement. Besides he promised IEEE Robotics and Automation Society IIUC SBC will organize more interactive workshops like this.

He spoke about the steps of developing a Microcontroller based project and demonstrated multiple projects using a microcontroller. He discussed and used tinkercad, Arduino IDE, proteus in the workshop. He highlighted the overview of the workshop with core aims, objectives, design and areas. He finally advised the participants to learn to remove the gap between content and pedagogy by integration, a collaboration of other departments and with other programs and also suggested to focus on the linkage between the progress in society and research on Microcontroller & Robotics by conducting research in the field of Embedded system, Robotics, Industrial automation, Sensor data processing, IoT, Machine learning etc from a long term career prospect. The participants had an opportunity to interact with the speaker, get their queries clarified and take the initial step of their professional future. The event closed with thanksgiving with all the participants.
